What else can I help you with?
Is my total active federal military service date supposed to match my DATE INITIALLY ENTERED UNIFORMED SERVICE?
Your total active federal military service date (TAFMSD) does not necessarily have to match your Date Initially Entered Uniformed Service (DIEUS). The TAFMSD reflects the total time you have served on active duty, while the DIEUS indicates the date you first entered any branch of the uniformed services. If you had breaks in service or transitioned between components (e.g., active duty to reserve), those factors can lead to discrepancies between the two dates. Always refer to your official military records for accurate information.
What is Total active federal military service?
it is a date represented in YYMMDD format that represents how much active duty service time you have. For Active Duty members it is usually the date of their enlistment. For Guard/Reserve members it changes and you subtract the total number of ADT days (not including drill weekend or PT days as those are IDT) from today's date and that will give you the TAFMSD. This is a tricky equation and takes practice.
